Description

Pumpkin Fluff is a no-bake, light, and creamy dessert that combines the warm flavors of pumpkin, vanilla pudding, and spices, all topped off with airy whipped topping. It’s perfect for fall gatherings, potlucks, or as a dip, mousse, or pie filling.


Ingredients

1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix (unprepared)

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons brown sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)

1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed

Graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or apple slices for dipping


Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the pumpkin puree and dry vanilla pudding mix until smooth and fully combined.
  2. Mix in pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and brown sugar (if using). Taste and adjust spices as needed. Optionally, add a pinch of nutmeg or ground ginger for extra warmth.
  3. Gently fold in the whipped topping until no streaks remain, ensuring the texture stays light and fluffy. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up and deepen the flavors, though it can be served immediately if preferred.
  5. Spoon into bowls or a serving dish. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or an extra dollop of whipped topping if desired. Serve with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or apple slices for dipping.

Notes

For a spicier flavor, add ground ginger, cloves, or nutmeg.

Sweeten with maple syrup or honey instead of brown sugar for a richer flavor.

For a crunchy texture, fold in crushed graham crackers or vanilla wafers.

To make it vegan, use dairy-free whipped topping and check the pudding mix for vegan-friendly ingredients.

For a chocolate twist, add mini chocolate chips or drizzle with melted chocolate on top.

Use this fluff as a no-bake pie filling by pouring it into a pre-baked graham cracker crust and chilling it.
